    ... unless you can show us where in the TOS it says that tanks have to pull at least two packs at a time?

    Actually says that, not any lame "this general statement means this specific thing for no better reason than I want it to" nonsense. Being cautious is not griefing. Hell, going AFK to answer the door or take a poop isn't griefing, it's just part of life when you queue with random strangers.

    And as other have stated, if you want to dictate how the tank behaves in a DF party, queue as a tank.

    What? The TOS or afking for completely unerelated reasons have nothing to do with what people are talking about here. Of course you can single pull packs. Doesn't mean people can't call you out for playing badly. In fact, a DPS that kites the pack and is hard focused by the healer can survive. So whats the purpose of a tank that cant handle more than what a DPS can? Enabling bad play won't help these players get better. Quite the contrary.

    I don't know I run a lot of content with my main and many alts and a single pulling tank is pretty rare in my experience.

    Actually, it may mean exactly that: calling someone out for behavior that is within the TOS sounds like TOS-violating harassment.

    Telling the tank that they have mitigation and could pull more is not harassment and will not be punished because it is not a bad faith advice. If the tank refuses to play properly I just roll my eyes and accept the waste of time.

    Some people are so bad they cant keep track of that many buttons. It is what it is. Just like calling out bad DPS is useless, if they were capable of doing more dps they would be already.

    Yeah but I think it falls on the more experienced players to educate sprouts about their resources and how to use them. Just be polite about it and they will probably listen. Probably..

    The sprouts that act violent against people that are trying to help them, those that enable that behavior, are actually quite toxic as it becomes undermining the group's efforts on purpose.

    Thanks, but no thanks. I'm not going to risk a GM strike against my account because someone had a bad day and was looking for an excuse, lol.

    Actually players have been reported for giving “unsolicited” advice. I’m certain you can find many examples here or Reddit.

    As for the pulling, it was the “community” that made such a decision based on how the new dungeons are comprised of mobs down a path stopped by a wall. Kill mobs, barrier or wall disappears.
